What is a "black cherry"?

The black cherry, scientifically known as Prunus serotina, is a small fruit native to North and South America, commonly found in forests, woodlands, and other natural habitats. It is also referred to as wild cherry or rum cherry. Black cherries are small and round, with shiny black skin when ripe. They have a sweet and slightly tart flavor, with their flesh surrounding a single large seed or stone in the center. While edible, black cherries are not commonly consumed fresh due to their tartness and small size. However, they are often used in culinary applications, including pies, jams, jellies, and beverages. Black cherries are also enjoyed by wildlife and are a valuable food source for birds and other animals.
